Positives | Soft-touch laminate is used to make the Shift desk's laminated desktop in Canada, pairing it with a lowered-cost Chinese-produced electric lifting base to create this entry level standing desk from Canada's premier brand in ergonomic office furniture. |
---|---|
Negatives | The limited range of sizes and colors, and relatively basic features of the standing desk are actually on par with what other Canadian standing desk sellers offer, if not a notch above, but not nearly as broad as what many American brands offer today. The warranty is quite short relative to the price tier, again compared to what the most popular American brands are offering these days. |
